Solutions
S1. Ans.(d)
S2. Ans.(a)
Sol. A mesh topology is a network topology in which all the network nodes are individually connected to most of the other nodes.
S3.Ans.(c)
Sol. In bus topology all computers are connected in a single cable.
S4. Ans.(d)
S5. Ans.(a)
Sol. Star topology is a network topology where each individual piece of a network is attached to a central node (often called a hub or switch).
S6. Ans.(a)
S7. Ans.(c)
S8. Ans.(d)
Sol. A star topology is a topology for a Local Area Network (LAN) in which all nodes are individually connected to a central connection point, like a hub or a switch. A star takes more cable than e.g. a bus, but the benefit is that if a cable fails, only one node will be brought down.
